Análise ergonômica do trabalho: avaliação ergonômica do posto de trabalho de uma auxiliar administrativa

Abstract

The work environment is a complex system, as it presents factors that interact with each other and the worker, such as: environmental, psychosocial, physical, and others, which, when not aligned, can harm working conditions and interfere with the quality of working life. Ergonomics studies the circumstances of work, seeking to optimize it through ergonomic research prioritizing workers' health. Work in offices is based on the use of the computer with working hours that require the worker to sit for a long time, which reflects negative results on health such as musculoskeletal disorders, physical and ocular tension, among others. Therefore, ergonomics seeks to provide health promotion interventions, preventing problems for the worker. This article aimed to carry out an Ergonomic Work Analysis (AET) at the workplace of an administrative assistant in a Municipal Secretariat and propose improvements. The chosen establishment is located in Penedo-Alagoas. In this study, the following stages were carried out: bibliographical research, observation in loco, data collection, diagnosis and recommendations. Based on the results obtained, changes were suggested in the work environment and system and the inclusion of breaks and Labor Gymnastics in order to minimize labor complaints.
